I watched my mentor closely. His white pelt swayed in the warm breeze. His blue eyes sparkled as he finished his vole. I'm your father. His voice echoed in my head. I tried to push it out but the more I tried the louder it got. I had run, out of the medicine cat den and into the bracken. I didn't want to stay with my 'father.' If he even is my father. Fuzzynose being my father was against the warrior code. My brother and me; no, my brother is dead, I am against the warrior code. I shook the thought out of my head. I'm as loyal as any cat here! Even if my father didn't follow the warrior code, that doesn't mean that I won't! I'll shred anyone who says I'm not loyal!
"Frostpaw, what are you doing?" Rainpaw asked, startling me.
"Uh, nothing." I muttered.
"Ok then, I'll see you around!" Rainpaw purred, padding over to her brother, Shrewpaw. I glanced up at the sky, there wasn't a single cloud. Just the bright, shining sun. I wish I could tell someone, but I can't. Who knows what might happen if I do? Snakekit I wish you were here! Why did you have to break the rules!
"Ravenpaw! Come here!" I called to my brother. Mistycloud hadn't returned to the hollow yet. She probably needed some time to think.
"What is it?" Ravenpaw asked.
"I need to tell you something!" I purred excitedly.
"Can you make it quick? I promised Skypaw I would go hunting with her." Ravenpaw complained.
"Fine. Maybe I'll just go and tell Rosepaw about our half-sibling in the Clan." I hissed, stalking away. It's always, Skypaw-this, Skypaw-that. He never has time to talk to me anymore!
"Tawnypaw wait!" He called, racing after me.
"What? Why don't you go moon over Skypaw?" I hissed, harsher than I meant to.
"What? I'm not mooning over Skypaw!" Ravenpaw protested.
"You are so! That's all you do! You never have time to do anything with me anymore! Ravenpaw, you barely even talk to me anymore." I scoffed.
"Tawnypaw, I'm sorry you feel that way. If that's how you felt you should have just talked to me about it." He insisted, I knew he was right.
"I guess so." I shrugged.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" He asked.
"Well, I found out something your never going to believe." I smiled.
"Tawnypaw! Just tell me!" He scoffed.
"My mentor, Mistycloud is our sister! Shadowstar is her father!" I purred.
"So you've figured it out." A cat behind me said, I turned to see a blue-gray she-cat. She looked old and frail.
"I'm sorry, I don't think I've seen you around the camp." I frowned. Who is this? She isn't an elder, I've had to take prey to them plenty of times!
"I am Littlestar, I've been in my den for some time now, I haven't had time to meet the new apprentices." The blue-gray leader rasped.
"You knew Mistycloud was my half-sister?" I narrowed my eyes.
"Yes, I knew you would figure it out. Sooner if not later. I requested specifically that Mistycloud be your mentor. Mistycloud must have figured it out at the beginning, Rivermist reported that she was avoiding you." Littlestar purred.
"Why didn't anyone tell us?" Ravenpaw asked.
"You had to figure it out on your own." Littlestar shrugged. She's right. I probably wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't figured it out on my own.
"Who is there?" A voice called.
"It is me, Shadowstar." I said, stepping out into the shadows. It was a full moon, when Bluesky said I had to meet with the other leaders.
"So we've all had the dream." Runningstar purred.
"Of course we've all had the dream, isn't that why were all here?" Pebblestar scoffed.
"Then it is true, we must lead our clans further into the forest." Rabbitstar confirmed.
"Where will we go?" Runningstar asked.
"Bluesky came to me, she said we must lead our clans to the other side of the forest." I told them.
"Then that is what we must do. Bluesky is a BrightClan warrior, we must do as she says. We will meet here in two sun rises at dawn with our clans. We will leave then." Rabbitstar purred.
"I'll see you all then." Pebblestar dipped her head, padding away. I said goodbye to Rabbitstar and Runningstar before racing back into the trees.
"Do not forget those closest to your heart. You have not seen the last of them."
I heard, I stopped, digging my paws into the dirt.
"Hello?" I called, no answer. I couldn't smell anyone either. I slowly padded back to camp. It must have been an omen from BrightClan.
"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the log for a clan meeting!" My father called. I padded drowsily out of the apprentice den.
"Ashpaw watch where you're going!" Fernpaw, my mother's apprentice growled.
"Sorry." I yawned.
"Whatever." Fernpaw hissed, padding over to her brother and sister, Rainpaw and Shrewpaw. I padded over to Wolffang, my mentor. I had no one else to sit with.
"A few dawns ago, I had an omen. A BrightClan warrior came to me, and told me to meet with the three other leaders at the full moon. They all had the same dream. Each of us had been visited by a BrightClan warrior, telling us to lead our Clans away from here." Shadowstar mewed.
"Where will we go?" Cloudstrike asked.
"To the end of the forest, where it is safe." Shadowstar confirmed.
"When will we leave?" Moonshine, Wolffang's sister asked.
"We will leave in two sun rises, at dawn." Shadowstar said, stepping down from the log. Leave home? What if some cats can't make it?
